Skunky Saturday

Woody is thankful that I only had to title this "skunky" and not "stinky" Saturday, as he walked within a few feet of a skunk in the wee hours of the morning. Woody was on one side of the fence that surrounds the cemetery and the skunk was on the other side. They both looked at each other. Woody said that the skunk's eyes shone! Woody walked quickly on...hoping that the skunk did the same thing in the opposite direction! He said that he did smell a skunk at another time on this walk...but that the one that he saw wasn't smelly. Woody said that he almost woke me up this morning to take a picture of the moon because it was so beautiful...sort of glad that he didn't as it was very early in the morning and I was sleeping very soundly after not sleeping much the night before. It is cloudy here now so we won't be able to see the moon tonight...so no pictures of the harvest moon. Woody walked about 13 miles on his early morning walk. After he got home, he made himself pancakes...I slept through that, too! Slept through the clean up of the kitchen, too. Later in the morning we both went to the public library. I sat in the car and read my book while Woody went in and got some books and dvds. Then we headed for the Tullahoma Greenway which you can get to down a path that's next to the library. We walked the greenway and back...maybe 3 miles...so Woody really got some walking in today. We came home and had lunch. Then I worked on my Sunday School lesson and Woody read and watched football. Tonight's picture is one of the views on the greenway. Really pretty in some places as you can see! And, the sounds of birds in the trees and undergrowth and bushes is phenomenal...must be thousands and thousands of birds taking refuge in that area. Such a beautiful walk and to think that it is so close to our house.
